MAT RUSH GRASS
(Lomandra hystrix)
A very hardy stylish perennial and non-invasive native ornamental landscaping plant.
Flowers and seeds were dried and pound into a flour by indigenous people.
Beautiful bright green grass with strap like leaves and a clumping growth
habit. Grows to 120cm tall and wide. Short white creamy green flowers during spring.
Good for contrast when combined with brighter coloured plants.
Fast growing and hardy perennial, ideal around water courses, banks, rockeries and
suited also to containers in formal outdoor areas. Used for bush regeneration, erosion
control and soil stabilisation.
Great for any planting situation and tolerates even marginal soils and
grows well in full sun or complete shade.
GROWING ADVANTAGES
Excellent companion plant as it has a very unique ability to remove toxins and heavy
metals from soils, so is used to revegatate and revitalise polluted mine sites!
Low maintenance, suitable for poor soils and tolerant of harsh conditions, requires
little care once established.
Other uses
An excellent very low maintenance, companion and feature plant.
